Alfie has been having chronic clear nasal discharge, weeping out his eyes when eating and a sinus infection. Because we couldn't think of a better use for $1700, Alfie went to the vet school to have his nose scoped, CT scan done of his head and biopsies of his mucosa.
Good news is that it isn't brain fluid leaking out but instead Alfie has a deviated septum. (well, and they think he has Idiopathic lymphoplasmacytic rhinitis - inflammatory condition of his mucosa ). They couldn't tell if the deviation is congenital or he injured it. That's possible, Alfie isn't a risk taker but his nose is waaaaaaaay out there. As well, after the muzzle shoots out (around 11-12 weeks), a lot of young collies whack their noses before they figure out the new length.
A friend pointed out that a deviated septum are often used as an excuse for a nose job and this is an opportunity to give Alfie a new look.
Made me think of a "Holly the Collie" cartoon where she's trying different plastic surgery nose cards:

What do you think - would Alfie https://imgur.com/a/4kkxU6J look better with:
a pert Chihuahua nose? https://imgur.com/a/snGWnjw
a noble GSD nose? https://imgur.com/a/TfoGu8p
the Shar Pei? (would need to get lip filler): https://imgur.com/a/aTamuVD
Maybe it's not long enough and we should go with the Borzoi? https://imgur.com/a/F5lGkYi
The American Bully? (he'd need to get cheek & muscle implants to complete the look): https://imgur.com/a/NnJNEgH
(I can't include the full Brachcephalic nose, not even as a joke)
BTW, this is my first time doing a poll so it may not work.
